[P1] airport is evil

We may be on to something here...I plan tomorrow to get my local ISP 
men to come out, if I can, and bring their own laptops and check out my 
Airport/modem/computer connection.  If they can get to Google and I 
can't then it may be something different, but yes, I'm running 10.2.8 
and my TiBook is running 10.2.6 and may have the old numbers, by the 
way...Hadn't thought of that...and it used to work, but doesn't now...

I haven't done updates on the Airport in a while since it's the first 
one out...should I?  I did do one...but, have not since.

We've redone settings this weekend on the iBook, but not the TiBook 
which is not up and running...I turned it off to protect it, but they 
have had me power it up during this mess...just to try.  I can't get to 
Google, or some other sites, but most do okay...
